dan savage strikes again

Just as the common noun definition of "Santorum" gets press for being mentioned in "The Economist" (albeit in fantastically prudish fashion), Dan Savage takes another stab at repurposing the name of a politician.

From this week's column:

Confidential to everybody: "Pearl necklace" is out. "Cheney" is in. Pass it on.


I like it. Both a nod to the conservative lady's preferred accessory and Cheney's recent "neck spraying."

Re: the phrase "pearl necklace," how did the ZZ Top song of the same name ever get past the FCC?

I saw Dan Savage's "confidential," but I have no idea what "pearl necklcae" means. If I had to guess I'd say maybe blow job?
